VERSE 1
The radio’s spinning that same old tune, a thousand times before.
But tonight the snow is falling right, outside your apartment door.
We’re hanging tinsel on the tree, three years since the first time, see?
And I’m standing here, wrapping lights, reliving that December night.
It was cold out then, just like it is now, the air was sharp and fine,
But the fire was warmer in your gaze, when your hand found mine.
CHORUS
Oh, that Christmas ‘We’, that sudden shift, a little word that was the greatest gift!
It shut down the solo act, ended the lonely jive,
The very second that my future came alive.
You were standing by the mantelpiece, with mistletoe right above,
And you changed the whole equation with a four-letter word called love
No, wait—it was just ‘We’…
But it sounded like a symphony to me.
VERSE 2
The cocoa was cold and the crowd was gone, the jazz band had shut down,
Just the sound of the wind whipping the flakes around the town.
We were talking plans for the New Year's run, a vacation spot in spring,
And I kept saying,"I'm thinking I'll..." or"I could manage a thing..."
Then you paused the whole show, fixed your cuff, looked me right in the eye,
And casually, like it was nothing, let that new verb fly.
You didn't even know you’d done it, just talking’ 'bout a flight,
But the world exploded 'round my ears and filled with Christmas light.
CHORUS
Oh, that Christmas ‘We’, that sudden shift, a little word that was the greatest gift!
It shut down the solo act, ended the lonely jive,
The very second that my future came alive.
You were standing by the mantelpiece, with mistletoe right above,
And you changed the whole equation with a four-letter word called love
No, wait—it was just ‘We’…
But it sounded like a symphony to me.
BRIDGE
See,"I and You" is a tightrope walk, a careful, charming dance,
Where every choice is a solo thought, a cautious, calculated chance.
But"We" is the net beneath us both, a promise whispered low,
A declaration of a shared growth, a place we both can go.
It’s the anchor dropped on shifting sand, the vow that started then—
Just one little joint command, and I knew I was home again.
CHORUS
Oh, that Christmas ‘We’, that sudden shift, a little word that was the greatest gift!
It shut down the solo act, ended the lonely jive,
The very second that my future came alive.
You were standing by the mantelpiece, with mistletoe right above,
And you changed the whole equation with a four-letter word called love
No, wait—it was just ‘We’…
But it sounded like a symphony to me.
Yeah, it was just *‘We’*…
…And every Christmas since, I swear, it’s all the magic that I need.
